■ Maintaining Sampled Sound Data in Memory

After you save sampled sound data in memory, it will remain
there as long as power is supplied to the keyboard. However,
if you disconnect the AC adaptor when there are no batteries
loaded, sampled sound data will be deleted.
Tips for Maintaining Data

• Use both batteries and the AC adaptor together.
• Make sure that batteries with sufficient power are loaded
whenever you disconnect the AC adaptor.
• Connect the AC adaptor to the keyboard and plug it into a
